Where Can I find LT1 Turbo Kit?

A friend and i were discussing the ATI procharger which i intend to purchase sometime this winter whether i can afford to or not i will have to make it happen. Because like always competition is getting stronger. And instead of getting another new short block it just seems like the right move investment wise. Now my friends buddy who supposebly know's everything asks me why not go with a turbo? I said to him i've been looking for a while and researching LS1 turbo's and vettes' LS6 systems and all i found where (LT1 systems soon to come!) So he replies you aint been looking very hard!
So I come to you guy's for help, where can i find a turbo kit for an LT1 and are there systems under $6k. Maybe i'm not looking hard enough like he said but I was just wondering where they are!? Call me blind i guess! Any input is greatly appreciated! Thanks....

Is anyone running one of these?? I priced out, and came to about 6200 with a T-76 BB turbo head unit.

base kit - 3499.99
pt-76 - 1595.00
is 5094.99


BUT - your looking at an dumping about 2500.00 in parts to up grade your short block. plus cash for head work, machine work, new fuel system,chassis work, and a whole new drive train to handle that type of power.

Well, I have a great set of stock ported LT1 heads right now that will be used, I'm planning on about $4000 for a fully forged 383 bottom end, and will have a 12 bolt with a CF driveshaft already. Basically, I'll be left needing the fuel system upgrade, which is manageable.
